heads or tails

we are having breakfast, sitting down at my father's garden, laughing and kissing.i say to my mirror man that it's time to go, cause my mother is on her way and I don't want her to see us together.he complains "why shouldn't I meet your mother?", and I reply "you have a wife-I'm going for a walk downtown".and as I walk nonchalantly in the streets I get into a casino.there's a guy selling animals in the main room, the atmosphere is quite decadent ("people don't have money to gamble anymore" he says).I see a cat in a cage, black and white, with black forming a mask around her eyes, I pet her, I feel small bumps underneath her fur.I ask the salesman how much she costs, out of curiosity, cause I don't have any money.He says she's a special breed and her price is a fortune.I say "are you crazy?she's a stray cat, pregnant, and she has this open ulcer on her crown-if you don't sell the poor animal for what it's worth, it's gonna die before reaching 40".
